The origional claim was that modern recordings are so mediocre that being

You mean re-recorded on a poorly recorded cassette.

You spent much of the post trying to establish how poor the format in
general is (as you did in the above sentence).

Also, the OP said "so bad...would sound the same if recorded on a
cassette". This is a slam on the format in general. You didn't say "on
a poorly recorded cassette".
